PAD4-IN-2 TFA is a highly tumor-targeted and irreversible PAD4 inhibitor with an IC50 of 1.94 μM. PAD4-IN-2 TFA selectively recognizes sialic acid on tumor surfaces and accumulates in tumor tissues, with distribution in the cytoplasm of tumor cells and nuclei of neutrophils. PAD4-IN-2 TFA inhibits the PAD4-H3cit-NETs (Neutrophil Extracellular Traps) pathway, reduces senescent tumor-associated neutrophils, and promotes M1 macrophage polarization. The compound exhibits potent anti-tumor and anti-metastatic activities and is suitable for breast cancer research.

Description

PAD4-IN-2 TFA is a highly tumor-targeted and irreversible PAD4 inhibitor with an IC50 of 1.94 μM. PAD4-IN-2 TFA selectively recognizes sialic acid on tumor surfaces and accumulates in tumor tissues, with distribution in the cytoplasm of tumor cells and nuclei of neutrophils. PAD4-IN-2 TFA inhibits the PAD4-H3cit-NETs (Neutrophil Extracellular Traps) pathway, reduces senescent tumor-associated neutrophils, and promotes M1 macrophage polarization. The compound exhibits potent anti-tumor and anti-metastatic activities and is suitable for breast cancer research[1].

IC50 & Target

IC50: 1.94 μM (PAD4)[1].

In Vitro

PAD4-IN-2 (compound 5i) TFA inhibits PAD4 enzyme activity in a colorimetric assay (IC50 = 1.94 μM) and exhibits negligible cytotoxicity in LLC, 4T1, and normal HL7702 cells after 48 h treatment (IC50 > 100 μM)[1].
PAD4-IN-2 (25-100 μM; 48 h) TFA effectively inhibits the monoclonal proliferation and dose-dependently suppresses the migration of 4T1 cells[1].
PAD4-IN-2 (50–100 μM; 1–48 h) TFA is selectively taken up by 4T1 cells in a time-dependent manner but not by normal HL7702 cells, induces mitochondrial shrinkage and pseudopodia reduction, localizes to neutrophil nuclei to decrease histone H3 citrullination (H3cit) levels, and inhibits neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Concentration: 3.125, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Showed no significant lethal effect on either tumor or normal cells, with an IC50 value greater than 100 μM.

Cell Proliferation Assay[1]

Cell Line: 4T1 cells

Cell Migration Assay [1]

Cell Line: 4T1 cells
Concentration: 25, 50, and 100 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Inhibited tumor cell migration in a dose-dependent manner, and significantly decreased both the number of migrated cells and the migration distance.

Immunofluorescence[1]

Cell Line: 4T1 cells and bone marrow neutrophils
Concentration: 50 μM and 100 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Localized to the cytoplasm of tumor cells and the nucleus of neutrophils, decreased intracellular histone 3 citrullination (H3cit) levels, and significantly inhibited the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs).
In Vivo

PAD4-IN-2 (compound 5i) TFA (6.18 mg/kg; i.v. ; every day for 21 days) inhibits primary tumor growth and suppresses lung metastasis in an orthotopic 4T1 breast cancer mouse model[1].
PAD4-IN-2 (6.18 mg/kg; i.p. ; once daily for 7 days) TFA shows initial antitumor efficacy in an S180 sarcoma mouse model[1].
PAD4-IN-2 (1.24-6.18 mg/kg; i.v. ; every day for 21 days) TFA decreases NETs formation, alters immune cells infiltration in the tumor microenvironment, and exhibits no significant hepatotoxicity or nephrotoxicity in vivo[1].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.05 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
